Auditor’s Responsibility

My responsibility is to express an opinion on the Financial Report based on the audit. I have conducted an independent audit of the Financial Report in order to express an opinion on it to the members.

I disclaim any assumption of responsibility for any reliance on this Report, or on the fi nancial statements to which it relates, to any person other than the members, or for any purpose other than that for which it was prepared.

My audit has been conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These standards require that I comply with ethical requirements, and that the auditor plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the fi nancial report is free from material misstatement. President Treasurer Bill Baarini Dominic Drenen An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Financial Report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the Financial Report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to management’s preparation and fair presentation of the Financial Dated this 21st day of November 2011 Report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of management’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Financial Report.

I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is suffi cient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
